Cuba sentences three for promoting Human Rights

HAVANA (AP) - Cuba held its third trial of dissidents in less than a month, sentencing three people who participated in a human rights meeting to three years each in prison, a local human rights group said.

The trials marked a new push by the government to quell dissent following a much larger crackdown last year, in which 75 government opponents were arrested and sentenced to between six and 28 years in prison.
